Slingshot Newton Wakeboard 2013

A key player in the Ballistic series, the Newton is fast and predictable. The Slingshot Newton Wakeboard is made for hard charging freeride fanatics who want high speeds, crisp edge control and buttery soft landings. Slingshot designed this board for snappy flex, smooth release and ultimate speed behind the boat, or for massive airs on the cable.

Subtle V Molded Channels - Shaped into the tip and tail of the core, this dual concave bottom shape adds stability, increases
speed on edge and provides a smooth release off the wake and ultra soft landings.

Rails/Edges

Taperwall™ - A step-down rail delivers optimum edge control, sound handling in choppy water, bomber impact
resistance and added stability at speed. From the belly of the board, it tapers off in thickness acting
as a molded fin when the board is on edge.

SingleShot™ Fusion Sidewall - Slingshot transferred the same technology found in high durometer urethane skateboard wheels into
the rail of all their boards. Slingshot's innovative manufacturing process literally infuses the rail into the board cores in one single shot, producing unrivaled dampening and durability.

Atomic-C Core - Locally farmed from sustainable forests, Slingshot's all-wood, ultra lightweight core provides the liveliest
feel ever. It features vertically laminated stringers and custom molded channels. There is no better
core material for achieving the best flex performance and durability in a board than full wood.

Base

Ultra-Glide Base - Provides optimum glide across water and obstacles, for ultimate durability

Fins

Four 6" x .75" Lucid Wake Fins

Additional Features

New Fastrack™ - For 2013, Slingshot has completely redesigned its proprietary mounting system and hardware to deliver increased stance options and simplify the boot installation. With a fresh and clean look, the
Fastrack™ offers limitless micro stance adjustability and proven superior rider to board connection.

4D Graphics - Utilizing cutting-edge graphic technology, every board features unique graphics and dimensional
depth highlighting the core. By combining digital with hand crafted art, Slingshot is able to create boards that have a true sense of depth that is unlike anything else. No two boards look exactly the same.

Hand Built in the USA - Using nothing but the highest-quality materials, Slingshot boards are built by Moonshine MFG in the Pacific Northwest.

Flex Rating (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) - 6.5

Rebound (1 Low - 10 High) - 8.5

Note - Longer/Narrower standard hardware may be needed when using non Slingshot Bindings on Slingshot Boards. (Slingshot doesn’t carry this. It can be purchased at a local Hardware store)

Alright this board is hands down one of the funnest wakeboards I have ever been on. With the continuous rocker, you get a super fast board that rips on the water and has consistent take offs with nice soft landings over the wake. It also holds a great edge, but when reverting or spinning on water it is super playful. & with a medium flex, you can butter around on this board comfortably without loosing edge hold and support. The only downside to this board was the clear fins that I received with the deck. 2 of them broke, first ride just from riding on water, no jibbing. I hit up Slingshot after, and they were super quick to send over some black durable replacement ones. If you are looking for a fun board to rip on the water and that does great in the air as well, this is the one for you!
